KaPow Comics & Coffee Spotlight Gallery

For our local artist showcases this year, we are partnering with one artist at a time and will hang their original artwork in our shop for a period of about 4 weeks. Some original pieces will be available for sale and prints will be available for purchase throughout the gallery show.

The Art of Tim Farnsworth

Our current Spotlight Gallery artist is Tim Farnsworth.

Tim Farnsworth is a self-taught
artist who learned by drawing Disney and other Sunday morning cartoons. At the age of 30, he went back to school to
earn a degree in Graphic Design where he was one of only three students to
freehand his drawings. It was also around this time that he started drawing
Comic book characters.

Jack the King Kirby, John Romita
Sr, and Steve Ditko are among Tim’s favorite comic artists. He can copy the
style of most artists. So, when it was
difficult to find prints and posters of the covers he liked, he started to draw
the covers on his own. He put this talent to use working with Xtreme
Masterworks creating the Iconic Covers Coloring book with Marvel’s approval.

All of Tim’s work is done by hand
with pencil and ink with Prismacolor and Copic markers.

In addition to working full-time
and drawing, Tim loves comics, going to conventions, riding Motorcycles and
Nebraska football.

Join us on Saturday, June 8th from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM for a show closing reception. Tim will be signing prints and doing sketches. This will be the last day to purchase any of Tim’s art.
